There was a poll done before the 2008 election where almost 15% of Pennsylvanians said they &quot;weren&#39;t ready for a black president.&quot; Weren&#39;t ready? What is this a date? &quot;I&#39;m not ready yet, please come back in 10 years or so. But, even then, you know, I may not be ready. Actually, you&#39;re too ugly (black) for me so I think I&#39;m going to be &#39;busy&#39; for a while.&quot; <br /><br />What the middle of this country doesn&#39;t understand is that the world is a crazy, dangerous place.

Physical health is more equated to happiness and comfort, meaning that a program that assists those without will leave the nation healthier than a program that does not.<br /><br />This is why I support a public option for health insurance, particularly one that insists on preventive care. We demand drivers pass an eye test before driving. There&#39;s no reason we can&#39;t insist on minimal preventive care.Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03664920037425489644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-63768366981909622472010-03-05T18:12:00.743-05:002010-03-05T18:12:00.743-05:00His low poll numbers, the reports of his high offi...His low poll numbers, the reports of his high office hi-jinx and finally his failure to sustain a campaign have ended David A. Paterson’s New York political career for the foreseeable future. New Yorkers need to concern themselves with the damage Paterson does on his way out<br /><br />The state cannot tax its way to prosperity. People prefer a government that looks towards their benefit. Officials elected or looking to be elected in New York must present ways to promote economic health of the state. In the same way a family works together in the time of economic hardship, the state must do more with less. Innovation, not taxation should be public policy number one.<br /><br />The Service Employees Internal Union (SEIU) 1199 has channeled millions of dollars into a campaign for a new sugared beverage tax on New Yorkers. That is what created this Alliance for a Healthier New York, but SEIU should take care of involving itself in politics. Back in 2003, the SEIU chastised AFL-CIO for being overly involved in the elections. Now in 2010, it is hypocritical that they should be involved in a campaign to burden New Yorkers with a new tax. <br /><br />The SEIU should be asked to stop their interference in the budget of New York. The taxation of the general public is not and should not be the purview of a labor union. The SEIU 1199 doesn&#39;t pay these taxes, New Yorkers do.<br /><br />Pennies add up to the difference between scraping by and down-right poverty. Economic health is physical health. Stress, especially long-term stress like financial hardship, induces obesity, heart disease and a host of other body aliments. SEIU and their supporters would do well to remember that in their speeches about wanting to improve the health of New Yorkers.JAVSnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00928668701005758965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-60466023019230155002010-03-05T16:23:29.543-05:002010-03-05T16:23:29.543-05:00He included me on his blog on Blog Amnesty Day a f...He included me on his blog on Blog Amnesty Day a few years ago.

But you can go to the post office here and find a quite nice selection of cards, wrapping papers, commemorative stamps, mint sets (coins), and various and sundry other things, also passport applications. I pretty much guarantee you that a lot of Canadians who have been in an actual post office lately have done so to pick up a passport application. :)<br /><br />Interestingly, you can also buy a limited subset of stamps at a lot of different places, like corner variety stores, drugstores (at the cash) and grocery stores.Interrobanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14073177798747299275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-15136530237972157442010-03-03T10:48:14.136-05:002010-03-03T10:48:14.136-05:00Dear Simply Left Behind,

Our shared concerns include health reform, public health, and asbestos contamination.<br />To increase awareness on these important issues, my goal is to get a resource link on your site or even allow me to provide a guest posting. Please contact me back, I hope to hear from you soon. <br /> <br />Sincerely,<br /><br />Barbara O’ Brien<br />barbaraobrien@maacenter.orgAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-16801540422211528332010-03-02T14:07:11.272-05:002010-03-02T14:07:11.272-05:00I&#39;d love to, mom, but we go to blog with the t...I&#39;d love to, mom, but we go to blog with the templates we have, not the templates we wish we had.Carlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03664920037425489644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-33341055142400390362010-03-02T13:56:03.251-05:002010-03-02T13:56:03.251-05:00please color your page up a bit, with some more wa...please color your page up a bit, with some more warmth. it is ice cold and stark white!justamomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15110286.post-21198298257869898832010-03-01T20:40:07.991-05:002010-03-01T20:40:07.991-05:00I believe this is also the case in Iowa.
